The number of 50 million is definitely not much, at least for the first part of "Armored Warriors", it is definitely not much.

On Earth, the filming time of this drama was 2008, and at that time, the investment in this drama had reached 20 million.

At that time, the housing price in Chaoyang District of the capital was more than 10,000 yuan per square meter, and now the housing price in Chaoyang District is almost 100,000 yuan per square meter.

At that time, if all the 20 million yuan was used to buy a house in the capital, and when it was sold in a few years, there would definitely be several small goals.

It is conceivable that in that era, the drama "Armored Warriors" was definitely a big investment.

At present, investing 50 million is just the most basic.

As for the lack of money in the future, Xu Ye will continue to invest money so that this drama can be successfully launched.

Compared with many problems encountered in filming "Armored Warriors" on earth, it is not a problem for Xu Ye now.

First of all, in terms of special effects technology, today's special effects technology is much better than it was back then.

The second is the progress of photography technology and the film and television drama industry, so that many shots that could not be shot before can be shot.

In terms of special effects, Xu Ye will not be stingy with investment.

What he wants to do is not just to shoot "Armored Warriors" on Earth, but to shoot better.

If you can get the script of the Emperor Heroes movie later, you can make a big movie.

Is it a problem that the high cost is not profitable?

Not for anything else, Xu Ye purely wanted to experience the feeling of the emperor's armor being combined, and it was worth it no matter how much it was spent.

As for whether he will lose money in the end, Xu Ye is not worried at all.

Because the most profitable part of tokusatsu dramas has never been the TV series itself, but the peripheral toys.

Adults may not think that the sales of "Armored Warriors" peripheral toys alone are hundreds of millions, which is only the sales within three years after the release of "Armored Warriors", and it is only counted as genuine, not pirated.

In this world, copyright is also more strictly regulated.

After the drama became popular, just by selling toys, it was enough to earn back the production cost, and it was a profitable business.

The premise is that the drama must be popular in the circle of children.

At this point, Xu Ye did not have any worries.

But Wang Zhibo sounds different.

50 million to shoot a special effects drama, what if you lose money?

You won't end up selling the company again, right?

Wang Zhibo hurriedly said: "Mr. Xu, I think 50 million is a bit too much, there is no such precedent in China." ”

He wanted to give Xu Ye a wake-up call.

You can't spend it like this if you have money.

Xu Ye asked rhetorically: "These armors, don't you want to use the best technology to shoot them?" ”

Wang Zhibo was silent when he heard this.

As a lover of tokusatsu dramas, how could he not want to.

Xu Ye continued: "Money is not a problem, it is more important to shoot the drama well, I will send you the design drawings later, and you can take someone to start preparing." ”

Wang Zhibo immediately said: "Okay, Mr. Xu." ”

Wang Zhibo is not a grinder, since Xu Ye said that money is not a problem, then he must spend money ruthlessly.

He has to make all these special effects props, and he has to do them very finely, even to the extent that he can still resist them under ultra-clear lenses.

At this time, Wang Zhibo suddenly thought of something, and said with a smile: "Mr. Xu, when are you leaving?" ”

"Let's go later." Xu Ye said.

"Then I'll go out and make arrangements first." Wang Zhibo said.

Xu Ye's heart immediately gave birth to a bad premonition.

Wang Zhibo hurriedly left the conference room.

Who is Xu Ye, as soon as he saw Wang Zhibo's expression, he knew that this person must not have held back anything good in his heart.

After all, that's how he did to others!

Not long after Wang Zhibo went out, Xu Ye heard cheers from the workstation outside.

It was the cheers of a crowd.

After the cheers, there was no movement.

It didn't take long for Wang Zhibo to return.

The two communicated about the production of these special effects props, and Xu Ye also told Wang Zhibo about the effects he needed on computer special effects.

However, these will have to wait for "Armored Warriors" to be filmed before production.

The production time of this drama must be much longer than the TV series he filmed.

When Wang Zhibo makes all the props to be used by the crew, it is estimated that it will take two or three months, and it will not be until next year if the crew starts production.

After chatting, Xu Ye was ready to leave.

When Wang Zhibo took him to the outside workstation, Xu Ye keenly sensed that something was wrong.

The eyes of all the employees looking at him are not normal.

At this moment, Wang Zhibo smiled and said, "Mr. Xu, before you leave, everyone has something to say to you." ”

As soon as Wang Zhibo finished speaking, all the employees got up and walked behind Wang Zhibo.

Xu Ye had already expected what was going to happen.

Sure enough, at this time, the executive girl put a Bluetooth speaker on the table, and then, the song sounded.

"Give you a little heart, send a flower~"

With the singing, Wang Zhibo took the lead in dancing, and the other employees danced along with Wang Zhibo's movements.

It's just that compared with Wang Zhibo's skillful movements, other people's movements are very rusty, and they can only be said to be doing along.

Wang Zhibo is dancing this dance with his daughter every day, and he has already learned it.

At this time, the man who followed Xu Ye was already dumbfounded.

He was introduced to Xu Ye by Wang Xu as an investment consultant specializing in acquisitions.

This acquisition order is worth 60 million, even in the business he handles, the transaction amount is relatively large, which is rare.

But this scene in front of me is even more fucking rare.

Who are these people?

Watching the group dance to the song, the investment advisor's toes were already clasped on the soles of his leather shoes.

In short, it is very uncomfortable.

For other acquisition projects, the scene is called a tall one.

This is the dance "Listen to Me Thank You".

But what he didn't expect was that in this extremely embarrassing situation, so embarrassed that he didn't even dare to move, Xu Ye moved.

Xu Ye's movements were very simple, he also started dancing, and he danced face-to-face with Wang Zhibo.

For a moment, the investment adviser was even more embarrassed.

Because now in the whole office, he is alone and has not danced.

"Listen to me and thank you, because of you~"

"Warms the four seasons~"

When the three words thank you sounded, Xu Ye and Wang Zhibo bowed to each other.

As long as I'm not embarrassed, it's someone else who is embarrassed.

Xu Ye's face was as usual, Wang Zhibo led a group of people to dance in front of him, it was simply a class axe.

It's impossible to embarrass me!

The three words thank you sounded again, and Xu Ye and Wang Zhibo bowed to each other again.

The people on Wang Zhibo's side are obviously also on the top.

In the current situation, whoever stops is embarrassed, and the result is that no one dares to stop.

The investment adviser on the side couldn't hold back after all, if it weren't for the fact that the floor under his feet was too hard, he felt that he was about to deduct a three-bedroom apartment.

Eventually, the investment advisor shouted in his heart: "What a sin! ”

After finishing speaking, he also jumped up with Xu Ye's movements.

Once a person starts to go crazy, the embarrassment disappears without a trace in an instant.

Even if he is now wearing a suit and leather shoes, the image of an urban white-collar worker.

This scene didn't end until the song "Listen to Me Thank You" came to an end.

After the dance, Xu Ye applauded: "Everyone danced very well, keep up the good work." ”

After finishing speaking, Xu Ye went out like no one.

The investment adviser on the side didn't come back to his senses for a while, and was still pulled away by Xu Ye.

After Xu Ye left, Wang Zhibo and the others only felt ashamed.

I didn't think about it when I was dancing with Xu Ye just now, but now that I think about it, what did I do just now?

Wang Zhibo's original idea was very simple, a few days ago, Xu Ye's album just released the last song "Listen to Me Say Thank You", and they simply danced this dance to express their gratitude.

There have been quite a few people dancing this dance on the Internet recently.

But he didn't expect it to be so embarrassing in the end.

From the moment Xu Ye also started dancing, the atmosphere was different.

Thinking of this, Wang Zhibo said in a deep voice: "What happened here today is not allowed to be spread!" ”

Everyone immediately said: "Definitely not to spread it!" ”

Just kidding, who dares to spread this black history, and do you want to lose face?

After Xu Ye and the investment consultant arrived in the car, the consultant asked, "Mr. Xu, have you decided on the name of the new company?" ”

Xu Ye said: "It's a big company." ”

The investment advisor was stunned when he heard this.

He pondered it for a moment and reacted.

It's like it's a big studio.

Who made you so famous?

In the end, the investment adviser still pressed his idea of making a suggestion and went through the company's procedures according to this.

Xu Ye's big move naturally can't be hidden from these people in the entertainment industry.

Linghai Special Effects Company originally serves film and television dramas, and it has a lot to do with the entertainment industry, especially Xu Ye also went to the company to inspect it, and basically took this matter to the table.

At the beginning, many reporters in the entertainment industry were still confused after receiving this message from others.

Xu Ye acquired a special effects company?

This sounds a bit bizarre.

Why did he buy a special effects company when he had nothing to do?

These entertainment reporters also hurriedly inquired through their respective connections, and in the end, everyone confirmed the authenticity of this matter.

It's not fake news, it's true!

However, even at this time, Yu Ji was not in a hurry to send a message.

Xu Ye is too insidious, what if he deceives everyone again.

The procedures of Linghai Special Effects Company were completed quickly, and the relevant information of the company can be found on some platforms in Huaxia.

The entertainment reporters soon discovered that the name of Linghai Special Effects Company had changed, and the information of the actual controller had also changed.

The new actual controller has become a big studio, and the name of the company has become a big film and television technology.

Until this moment, the entertainment reporters finally put their minds at ease.

The industrial and commercial information has been changed, so it can't still be a lie, right?

So, this group of entertainment reporters immediately posted the news.

Since Xu Ye's new album was released, there has been no big news in the entertainment industry recently, and now I finally found big news.

Sure enough, after this news was released, it directly entered the top ten hot searches.

Xu Ye is too popular now, and it can be said that he is already a national-level star.

When many people look at the hot search list, they will click on the topic of Xu Ye's acquisition of a special effects company.

It's just curiosity anyway.

The patients of Huohua Temple are just having fun.

After a group of sick people clicked in, after seeing the content in the news, they immediately began to sand sculpture.

"That's a big company, you really know how to make a name!"

"What? Dean, you spent 60 million to acquire a special effects company, how did you get this money?! ”

"Don't you only eat potato chips during the holidays? You're so rich! ”

"Did you get that money in a good way?!"

"You are eating potato chips and instant noodles, and you have saved so much money!"

Other celebrities make money, and the audience scolds.

Xu Ye makes money, a group of sand sculpture netizens are joking, and making so much money is also what Xu Ye should do.

With so many works he has created, it would be strange if he didn't make so much money.

In these years, some traffic stars have nothing to do, and they can get sky-high salaries, and they can buy a mansion worth tens of millions at every turn.

Xu Ye's spending power is far from these stars.

The patients of Huohua Hospital also picked up the remarks of Lin Shuo's fans before.

At that time, Lin Shuo's fans said that Xu Ye was a phoenix man, and he was with Xiao Xu for money.

It's okay now, Xu Ye directly appeared and slapped his face.

A person who can come up with 60 million cash to buy a special effects company, you say that he pursues Xiao Xu for money, and you say that he is a phoenix man.

Then this phoenix is not a plane tree, but a cash cow.

Lin Shuo's fans shut up for the time being.

The gap is too stark.

Lin Shuo himself has invested in business, but he invests in hot pot restaurants, milk tea restaurants, snack bars, etc., and takes the route of harvesting fans.

The final destination of this kind of store is basically bankruptcy, there are very few good ones, and the reason is very simple, there are too many things for celebrities, and it is impossible to keep an eye on the company's operation.

Besides, some celebrities don't know how to do business.

Soon, though, the group of fans found a new angle.

"Xu Ye is rich in acquiring special effects companies, which is nothing to praise, it's not to make money, just to take orders through his connections in the circle."

That's right, celebrity acquisition companies, there is really nothing to praise, this is a normal business practice.

Xu Ye didn't plan to do publicity on this.

Just 60 million to buy a company.

But now that this matter has been exposed by the marketing accounts, and the popularity is so high, it is time to rub off on your own popularity.

In the afternoon of the same day, this is a big studio and Dream Building Studio posted a Weibo together.

"This is a big studio will be with Dream Studio, and that is a big special effects studio, to enter the domestic special effects drama industry, the new drama is already in preparation, and it is expected to be launched next year!"

After that, a big company also registered a Weibo, reposted this Weibo and said: "That's a big studio, which will be responsible for all the special effects technology of this show." ”

That's the name of a big company to the outside world, that is, it's a big special effects studio.

When this news came out, everyone was really confused.

Many people have asked, "What is a tokusatsu drama?" ”

Tokusatsu dramas, whether abroad or domestic, are actually equivalent to a niche theme, and it is not surprising that there are such doubts.

Netizens also popularized science for those who didn't understand, and everyone suddenly understood.

"It turns out that Xu Ye bought a special effects company to shoot a special effects drama?"

"Isn't this too expensive, completely unnecessary?"

"What is luxury, this is called luxury! For the sake of this drama, I bought a company! ”

"I always feel that the dean has been deceived, there are no good films in domestic special effects dramas, and this money will definitely be wasted!"

Tokusatsu drama is an unfamiliar word to too many people.

There are also a lot of unfavorable voices on the Internet.

These were all expected by Xu Ye.

Isn't this the heat coming?

At least, most people now know that Xu Ye is going to do a special drama, which will be good for the promotion of "Armored Warriors" later.

Xu Ye didn't care about these things anymore.

As for the main work of "Armored Warriors", he has been handed over to Gao Leyong, as well as a director he chose in sound and light entertainment.

If you want to find a special special drama director in China, you can't find it, and there is no one at all.

This director used to make short films, and when Xu Ye was filming "Wulin Gaiden", the director started in the group, and there was no problem with the level.

As for the rest, it is up to him to learn by doing.

As an animation director, Gao Leyong can provide some ideas for animation creation and integrate them into the filming of special effects dramas.

After all, the main audience of "Armored Warriors" is actually children, not adults.

In terms of lens language, there are still some differences from film and television dramas for adults.

After arranging the matter of "Armored Warrior", Xu Ye also received a message from Zhou Dachen.

The post-production of "Never Expected" is all completed.

On the earth, when "Never Expected" was launched, the supervision of online dramas was not so strict, and "Never Expected" followed the way of self-censorship and self-broadcast on video platforms.

But in this world, the supervision of online dramas has been formalized, and online dramas also need to get relevant documents if they want to officially go on the video platform.

Xu Ye can take advantage of loopholes, but there is no need for this, he is a legal citizen.

"Then submit it for review."

Cao Na, the leader of the audit department, was puzzled after receiving the documents submitted by Zhou Dachen.

That's the wrong size of the file.

In general, TV dramas, even if an episode is only 20 minutes long, because the samples submitted are the clearest versions, and the size is more than one G.

But the video file of each episode of "Never Expected" is very small, not like the size of a film of tens of minutes.

"It can't be that I sent the wrong document, right?" Cao Na wondered.

But among these documents, some are big and some are small, and it doesn't look like the wrong document was sent.

After all, if you send the wrong document, it can't be an irregular mistake.

After Cao Na read the text version of the submitted information, she was already confused.

She felt like she understood the story, but she didn't.

"Doesn't that look like a TV series?"

The people in the audit department are also people, and they will also pay attention to the trends in the entertainment industry, and they will also swipe Weibo to watch hot searches, Cao Na has seen the promotional content of the drama "Never Expected" before.

She remembered that it was a comedy, and she thought it was a comedy similar to "Wulin Gaiden", but it seemed to be different from what she thought.

"Let's take a look first."

Cao Na opened the first episode.

When the first episode started playing, a line of words appeared.

"This show is sponsored by this big studio, are you happy today?"

After seeing this sentence, Cao Na smiled knowingly.

This is followed by the title of the first episode, with a large paragraph of text under the title.

When Cao Na was about to watch it, the picture went black, and then Wang Dazhui's face appeared on the screen.

Wang Dazhui played by Xu Ye showed a paralyzed expression, looking ahead with blank eyes.

The dubbing also sounded.

"My name is Wang Dazhui and I am an actor......"

Cao Na hurriedly pressed the pause button, and for a while she didn't know whether to go back and read what the words under the title were, or whether to continue to see what story was going to be told later.

The genre of this drama is very weird.

"Xu Ye's face is too funny! This paralyzed expression is performed by force, it's really not easy. ”

Other celebrities want to perform complex expressions, but they only have a paralyzed face.

Xu Ye is different, he can't be paralyzed, he can only perform a paralyzed face.

Eventually, Cao Na decided to go back to the front first and see what was written under the title.

When she returned, she could read the words clearly.

"Isn't it hot like a dog, it's a hot dog,

The crew's boxed lunch is so unpalatable that it will die if you don't eat it,

I have to work hard to act today because fifty yuan a day, hehe,

I'm the man who wants to be the best actor in Asia, I can definitely do it,

Because I live in No. 431, West 5th Building, Asian Community. ”

Cao Na can still understand the first four sentences, but she doesn't understand the last sentence very well.

"What the hell is this!"

Then, Cao Na continued to look down.

As a result, she couldn't stop looking at it.

The whole drama is not long, and when she finishes watching the whole drama, Cao Na's mind is full of echoes.

"My name is Wang Da Hammer, I never expected it."

She finally understood why this drama was called Unexpected.

The plot in this drama is really the main one, I never expected it, and Xu Ye's neuropathy is simply too compatible.

Cao Na even suspected that Xu Ye's illness had infected the entire crew.

When she watched this drama, she never stopped laughing.

Sometimes she is embarrassed and funny to watch.

The most important thing is that she really didn't expect it, didn't she say that Xu Nanjia was the heroine?

can look at the scenes in the play, the heroine is obviously the women's clothing boss!

The women's clothing boss also left a deep impression on Cao Na.

This kind of comedy genre, she doesn't seem to have seen it in domestic dramas before.

They are all comedies, and they are also very different from "Wulin Gaiden".

"The scale of some places in this drama is a bit large, but after all, it is only an online drama, so it doesn't matter, and it can also be seen that in the face of the entertainment industry, it also has ironic significance for some phenomena in society." Cao Na said in her heart

Some lines that are too excessive in this drama have been modified by Xu Ye.

After all, the two worlds are not exactly the same, and the works cannot be copied directly, and attention must be paid to the details.

In the end, Cao Na gave an opinion on the approval of the review.

If she has any other opinions, it is that she hopes that this drama can be longer.

The drama "Never Expected" is so short, and some episodes are only five or six minutes long.

How do you satisfy the audience at this time?

It's over before it's cool.

When the news of the review of "Never Expected" came, Xu Ye also began to arrange follow-up publicity work.
